Wasn't there another thread about those people? Losers? (Do your friends think you are a loser?) Ha ha!
Sometimes I can hear Gandalf telling me "Fly you fool"! (get to the kitchen, finish the laundry and cook delicious food). Eh, everybody has a passion, I'm glad mine is Tolkien instead say....NASCAR, or wrestling, or buying things I don't need on QVC! (no insult intended for those who enjoy such things)

I think Tolkienites or Tolkienists. Though personally I like the ones that show our true nature.

Welcome to the 'Moot Gwaimir!

Tolkienites has come up a lot, and that's the one I've always preferred.

The huge acronyms are also great!

Of course, you could be really geeky, like my friends and I are, and spend time coming up with, not only names for people like us Tolkienites, but coming up with specific definitions for the words 'geek,' 'dork' and 'nerd.'

I think we had 'geek' meaning someone who was very involved in something specific, like Tolkien, or Star Trek, or computers. . .

yeah. me and my friends do that too. We have different levels of geekyness. haha...... I've seen Tolkienites the most on this thread and others. Maybe that's our name. or maybe, just maybe we're like Aragorn and Gandalf and have many names but are the same person. maybe different people call us differently, but in the end it all comes down to the love of things that are good, like Tolkien for instance.

People usually refer to me as "the girl who thinks she's and Elf."

My friends call me "Elf Girl", even though they don't know my screen name here.

Here's something (it might be dumb but oh well. Its all about sharing our thoughts!) Tolkieknighted. Except it reminds me of laryngitis. Actually I think we need a phrase. A phrase is good. I think I'll start a thread on that one!

LONG LIVE THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE WEE SCARVIES!

you'll have to excuse me, i'm not at my best
i've been gone for a month
i've been drunk since i left
there so-called vacations
will soon be my death
i'm so sick from teh drink
i need home for a rest
we arrived in december and london was cold
so we stayed in thebars
along charing cross road
we never saw nothin' but brass taps and oak
kept a shine on the bar
with the sleeves of our coats
-chorus-
euston station the train journey north
in the buffet car we lurched back and forth
past odd crooked dykes
through yorkshire's green fields
we were flung into dance
as the train jigged and reeled
you'll have to excuse me, i'm not at my best
i've been gone for a month
i've been drunk since i left
there so-called vacations
will soon be my death
i'm so sick from teh drink
i need home for a rest
take me home....
by the light of the moon she'd drift through the streets
a rare old perfume so seductive and sweet
she'd tease us and flirt as the pubs all closed down
then walk us on home and deny us a round
-chorus-
the gas heater's empty, it's damp as a tomb
and the spirits we drank are not ghosts in the room
i'm knackered again, come on sleep take me soon
and don't lift up my head
'till the the twelve bells at noon
you'll have to excuse me, i'm not at my best
i've been gone for a month
i've been drunk since i left
there so-called vacations
will soon be my death
i'm so sick from teh drink
i need home for a rest
take me home....

I like Tolkeinites...

What about:

Elven Hobbit Dwarf Wizard Men that are labeled disturbers of the peace????

Just a thought...

That's a good one, but I'll save that for my sig on emails, ha. No, I'll settle for "Tolkienite." Or how about skip nerdy nickname and go for "nerd"?
